Singer-songwriter Jason Isbell is having quite a summer. His latest album, “Something More Than Free,” debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s rock, country, and folk charts. He sits down with Anthony Mason to discuss how his mother was the inspiration for one of his new songs, “Children of Children,” and then he performs that song on Saturday Sessions.

Huge props to the guy who mixed this. Everything sounds huge especially the drums!!! The 400 unit is one of the tightest bands out right now and the mix really highlights that.

Aww so refreshing, I must express my gratitude, as we all should! I am grateful that such a gifted, creative, artists exists, in today's oceans of extra light gauge, pressed wood, G, C, D, no verse/repetitive sameness. I am grateful this artist chooses to share his wonderfully, heavy, and thought provoking, lyrics, sparsely dotted with such powerful well placed guitar parts, that one must stop the car, truck, or in our case, rental van, in order to fully absorb everything that is actually going on in his recordings and live performances. It's safe to say, 20 plus yrs have passed since a song has moved two or more souls on a trip to goosebumps, then tears, leading to 20 minutes of rewinds. Thank you from a rental van of musicians, at a reststop near Tucumcari.

You sir have written a comment that expressed my thoughts exactly! Jason should be the Springsteen of this generation but they cant move past the beer drinking on my tailgate dreck. Or spending more time in the gym then writing a good song.

My 29 yr old son and his wife love watching Jason any chance they get; 3 yrs ago he got me to first listen to his music; he*s now one of my favorite musicians along with his wife Amanda Shires. I especially love his last 3 albums.I think he is one of the best songwriters of this generationI’ I will finally have the chance to see him live Memorial Day Weekend, What a privilege.

Couldn't agree more The end of the song is lifted by the keyboards, then the guitar takes it to places unbelievably wonderful On the album this ding is sublime, live it's a true masterpiece Breath-taking and heartfelt lyrics, great accompaniment then the song lifts off to somewhere else Magical Lovely to see Jason's mother and he's a genuinely great artist

Yeah that does seem to be the case for far too many people---not to get too political--but they went for the same sort of thing in our politics, in voting for someone who had what sounded like a good message, but was really just full of hot air and no substance. People want simple things that they don't have to think about too much--pretty much that way with music, food, politics, religion and many other things.....

Love the perspective that you have on this. Another perspective maybe that the reason things are the way they are is because there’s been multiple ways it’s been done and that’s why it works so well and has stuck. Change for the sake of progress or change isn’t always necessary
